I'm putting together some custom reports for our website; trying to gather browser & platform data.

We have millions of session hits so the results stretch in the case of browsers to more than 500 when you throw in all the versions of firefox, safari, chrome, etc. plus the various platform versions of the same.

Anyway, i've put a dashboard together but the stupid thing will only let me pull in a single DIMENSION, such as browser name. I can't also pull in the secondary DIMENSION, namely the browser version.

Follow me so far? So what I would like to do (seems like) is very simple; concatenate the browser name & the version into a single DIMENSION to use on my dashboard so you don't see Internet Explorer listed 5 times without the benefit of which version is the one the majority of the hits are coming from.


Sure, I can pull this into a spreadsheet & do more with it, but I'd rather just have the one dashboard link if possible and not deal with exporting the data and fussing with it each month I add to it.

Does this make sense? Is it possible to do some rudimentary concatenating in analytics?

I've been unable to add this on my dashboard as well. Tackled it again when I saw your thread and was still unable to get it.

It would be an absolute pain in the arse, but you can create a widget for each browser and then filter down by version number/name.
